Hi my name is Jordan King. I'm in a band called * ALL THE KING CHEETAHS *. We just finished recording an album and have been searching artwork everywhere. I ran across this yesterday and thought YES!!! it would be an awesome album cover for our first album......with your permission of course. You would also be credited in bold

The king cheetah was developed from the Egyptian pharaoh's domesticating the cheetah... those domestic cats gained stripes instead of spots for some unknown reason... when the cheetah was bred back into the wild cheetah's the gene for the strips went dormant, and only shows sometimes... they were the Pharaoh's Cheetah, thus King Cheetah. Useless info, but... that is a really beautiful drawing.

extremely rare. It's because it follows a rare strand that has a freak mutation. All cheetahs are closely related so it's a strand that should be found in all cheetahs.. but it's untrackable. So when it appears it's very special.

apparently it was actually a full breed but the majority seemed to die off, and due to a dire need of inbreeding to reproduce, the sperm count of the male king cheetah is now really low, thus making them rare =3
